Razer Huntsman not detected on Synapse 2 on Mac

Hi guys

Just got my Huntsman Quartz - plugged into Mac and working fine, however installed Synapse 2 (apparently 3 not compatible with Mac) and it doesn't detect the keyboard. Gave permissions in Preferences under General and Accessibility as per prompts on install, restarted, nothing. Originally it was plugged into my docking station (only have USB-C ports on Macbook), so I changed it and plugged into one of my attached monitors, restarted and same, still nothing. Now have it plugged into a basic USB to USB-C adapter plugged directly into the Macbook, still nothing - restarted yet again, still nothing. Checked Preferences - everything still has permissions.
Stumped.
Any help or suggestions appreciated please! Keyboard is working absolutely fine - problem is just Synapse not detecting it.
Thanks in advance
